There is a size limit for the pcap-log file that can be set. The
|
|
|
|
|
default limit is 32 MB. If the log-file reaches this limit, the file
|
|
|
|
|
will be rotated and a new one will be created. The pcap-log option
|
|
|
|

has an extra functionality for "Sguil":http://sguil.sourceforge.net/
|
|
|
|
|
that can be enabled in the 'mode' option. In the sguil mode the
|
|
|
|

"sguil_base_dir" indicates the base directory. In this base dir the

pcaps are created in a Sguil-specific directory structure that is

(and if necessary modify) the base dir in the suricata.yaml file.
